	From comp.unix.questions FAQ:
	(http://www.cis.ohio-state.edu/hypertext/faq/usenet/unix-faq/faq/part3/faq-doc-6.html)

	MIT's Project Athena has produced a comprehensive
      delete/undelete/expunge/purge package, which can serve as a
      complete replacement for rm which allows file recovery.  This
      package was posted to comp.sources.misc (volume 17, issue
      023-026)
